[Milsurplus] Let stir up the hornets nest!

[Mike Hanz]

I have a BC-224-A that suffered the same 19" panel replacement 
treatment, John...only more.  Yes...one of the original unobtanium RCA 
224-A receivers that began the whole BC-224/348 series. :'(   The only 
thing easily salvageable was the tuning bezel, which was missing on the 
one at http://aafradio.org/flightdeck/1935/1935.html and of course was 
transferred to complete that one.  Gone were the control designation 
plates, original knobs, power/avc/avc switch, etc.

To add insult to injury, the original tubes had been replaced with 
postwar miniatures mounted on reducer plates in the original tube socket 
holes...hack, cough, retch....

It's gonna be a long comeback project.....
